Data Storage Systems Manufacturing Industry Profile

Companies in this industry manufacture devices that allow the storage and retrieval of data from computers. Major companies include Dell EMC, NetApp, and Western Digital (all based in the US); Fujitsu, Hitachi, and Toshiba (Japan); and Seagate (Ireland), as well as the data storage divisions of large computer OEMs such as Hewlett Packard Enterprise and IBM.

Regardless of their primary location, major data systems storage manufacturers are global in scope; manufacturing is often performed overseas, component parts may be sourced from various countries, and products are marketed and sold worldwide.

The US data storage systems manufacturing industry includes more than 100 companies with combined annual revenue of about $7 billion.

Demand is driven by spending levels in the consumer and enterprise computing markets. The profitability of individual companies depends on operational efficiency and rapid product development. Large companies have advantages in development and marketing budgets, component purchasing power, and sales reach, as well as their ability to offer more comprehensive product lines. Because they typically serve a broader customer base, large companies may also be less vulnerable to declines in individual customer segments. Small companies can compete effectively by identifying underserved markets or providing superior technology. The US industry is highly concentrated: the 20 largest companies generate about 95% of industry revenue.

The explosive growth of internet traffic has disrupted the technology industry, threatening to clog telecom networks… unless a new, scalable approach is implemented. This documentary - Part 6 in TIA's Network of the Future Documentary Series - explores the evolution of Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) and the hurdles faced when switching from infrastructure-heavy, legacy networks to virtualized networks. Industry leaders and experts, including Red Hat, VMWare, Brocade, HP and more, also uncover the benefits and use cases behind the transition from hardware-based networks to software-driven ones, making NFV a reality for network operators.

In this Nugget, Anthony Sequeira describes software defined networking in a way that everyone can understand. This is a small slice of his Cisco Cloud Fundamentals course at CBT Nuggets. This course can lead to CCNA Cloud certification.
